“If there was ever a time the Crow people needed each other, it’s today,” Donald Spotted Bear III, one of Denise's brothers, said during the ceremony, The Billings Gazette reported. “Don’t let how they died define who they were in life.”

A third citizen, Nehemiah “Rocko” Broken Rope, 30, also was killed in the shooting. He is being laid to rest on Friday in Crow Agency, another community on the reservation.

The home has since burned to the ground. The Big Horn County Sheriff's Office provided a video to MTN News that was taken by a deputy who arrived at the scene early Tuesday morning.

MTN also previously reported a lookout for Roderick Plentyhawk, 32, and said he was described as a suspect in the shooting. He has since been located and questioned but authorities won't tell the station if he is in custody.

The reservation encompasses about 2.3 million acres in three counties. The BIA only has 9 officers on staff and only 3 are on patrol at any given time, according to the Crow Legislature.
